Software/Links:

• Our software tool, RNAblueprint, to fairly sample nucleic acid sequences compatible with multiple structural and sequence constraints is available here on github. Furthermore a python module to design RNA molecules using RNAblueprint, ViennaRNA and the NUPCK package can be found here.
• Our RNAdevices database summarizing published designs is available. It is currently resticted to purely RNA based designs.
• ODE systems implementing essential cellular process, i.e. transcription, translation and degradation, to model RNA based switches are available here on github.
